Re: wash into the river/be washed into the river

There's nothing wrong with the use of the verb "wash" here. When something is moved from one place to another by the power of water, it is "washed away" or "washed into" etc.

I mean can we use both ways of active form and passive form with the verb "wash" ?
In active form, we have "...washed into...".
In passive form, we have "...were washed into...".
Can they be the same?
Thank you very much !
